Hello everyone! I am an international student applying to UW-Madison. All comments, ideas, suggestions will be appreciated! :)
Being consistent in one's academic goals coupled with moral support from the school system make a student into a successful learner. My aspirations for study in the field of economics was discovered when my parents started a small business to support family. But my interest to pursue my career in economics was sharpened much more when I saw the tragedy of ruining of environment in my home country because of developing mining industry. Including my grandparents and their herds in the area they lived had to go to a small well dug by several local men to get clean underground water because the closest river was dried up by the mining companies. It was too frustrating to me that all I could do was just sit and stare at the red dust flowing everywhere and let the dusty wind from the mining machines wash over me. Seeing many people sending requests to the mining company to stop pollution without results, I realized that the great effort these people had done might not work, except it went with well-organized and convincing solutions. I knew that I had to improve my knowledge to offer a practical solution and help my people.
University of Wisconsin-Madison offers a versatile range of career paths for its students, and studying here would clearly assist me in attaining my life goals. I would like to pursue my career in economics and eventually make contributions to build a responsible economy in Mongolia. Being a big research school, University of Wisconsin-Madison can offer so much more than other schools. The school has great professors who earned honors among their peers, national recognition, large research grants, and have done work at prestigious universities, therefore it would be the best place to help me to pursue my career for the next four years.
There are numerous student organizations and extra curricular activities that I could be a part of at UW-Madison. Being my favorite ever since I could remember, dance and volleyball teams of Madison would definitely be my top choices. Ranking in top ten in national championships since 2001, Wisconsin's dance team will both be a satisfaction and an enhancement for my next four years of education.
American Center for Mongolian Studies (ACMS) locating at University of Wisconsin-Madison also drew my attention. With the resource and network of the ACMS, it will be helpful to me finding future research data and collaborators.
As an international student, I admire that University of Wisconsin Madison has a very culturally diverse campus, providing students with many opportunities to learn about different cultures and learn useful skills beyond academics. ISS offers various services for international students to support them with internationalism such as International BRIDGE and International REACH programs. With its inviting community, great opportunities of learning, green campus, the knowledge and skills I learn, UW-Madison will make me competitive in the future world.
